Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer is not with his team Friday as he undergoes a “minor procedure,” the club said today, according to Judd Zulgad of 1500ESPN.com.

The 58-year-old Zimmer is expected to coach the team on Sunday in Buffalo, and it’s anticipated he will return Saturday, when the team has a walk-through, per 1500ESPN.com.

The nature of the procedure is not known.

Offensive coordinator Norv Turner is slated to talk to reporters after practice, according to Master Tesfatsion of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.
